Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, often shortened to TCE, is a synthetic solvent used historically in industrial degreasing that can migrate through soil into groundwater. Because it can persist once introduced into the environment and often has no noticeable taste or smell at low levels, homeowners in Winter Park or elsewhere wouldn’t know it’s present without testing. If you’re concerned about TCE in your drinking water, a certified water test is the only way to be sure.
Many Winter Park residents prefer a treatment that protects the entire house — not just the kitchen tap — since daily activities like showering, brushing teeth, cooking and making ice all use the same supply. Trichloroethylene is primarily a long-term exposure concern rather than a cosmetic problem you can see or smell, so a whole-house solution gives consistent protection for every faucet and fixture once testing shows it’s needed.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the main water entry point, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is the most effective single-filter choice for many homes. GAC removes volatile organic compounds like TCE by adsorbing them as water passes through a deep carbon bed, and adequate contact time — achieved with properly sized media and flow design — is key to good removal. In a Winter Park house, a correctly specified GAC system treats water for every shower, sink and appliance, giving whole-home coverage.
A properly designed GAC whole-house filter should be sized to match your household’s water use and the characteristics of local water — in Winter Park that can mean accounting for moderate hardness and mineral content from Central Florida’s limestone geology. Carbon does get exhausted, so media replacement should follow a schedule based on your usage and, ideally, follow-up testing to verify continued performance. Many homeowners also add sediment pretreatment to protect the carbon bed from clogging; Mr. Pure Water can help you pick the right whole-house carbon configuration for your Winter Park home.
